MEN & WOMEN, BLACKS, CULTURES

BLACKS :One of the more common stereotype examples is stereotypes surrounding those who are Black. Saying that all Blacks are good at sports is a stereotype, because it’s grouping the race together to indicate that everyone of that race is a good athlete.

MEN AND WOMEN 
  • Men are strong and do all the work.
  • Men are the "backbone."
  • Women aren't as smart as a man.
  • Women can’t do as good of a job as a man.
  • Girls are not good at sports.
  • Guys are messy and unclean.
  • Men who spend too much time on the computer or read are geeks.
CULTURES:

  • All white Americans are obese, lazy, and dim-witted. Homer Simpson of the TV series The Simpson's is the personification of this stereotype. 
  • Mexican stereotypes suggest that all Mexicans are lazy and came into America illegally.
  • All Arabs and Muslims are terrorists.
  • All people who live in England have bad teeth.
  • Italian or French people are the best lovers.
  • All Blacks outside of the United States are poor.
  • All Jews are greedy.
  • All Asians are good at math. All Asians like to eat rice and drive slow.
  • All Irish people are drunks and eat potatoes.
  • All Americans are generally considered to be friendly, generous, and tolerant, but also arrogant, impatient, and domineering. 
this is a list of stereotype's that we use in America from what we say about black people, and stereotype's about men and women and how we look at different cultures.
